WEEKS. THIS BUILDING IS ACROSS FROM THEATRE AND BOB THE BARBER
IS IN RIGHT SIDE. NOTICE, THEY GO ALL THE WAY UP TO THE ROOF, AS
THEY DID TODAY, PAINTING THE TOP PART WHICH INCLUDES THE NAME OF THE
BUILDING AND SOMETIMES YEAR IT WAS BUILDT. THIS WAS KNOWN AS THE
ELLIS BUILDING AND THEY WILL BE ADDING A MISSING "L" LATER. THE
OLD PART AT RIGHT OF NAME, PRETTY DARK AND WORN. THE GRAY AREA WILL PAINTED NEXT. NOTICE..ALL 5 WINDOWS ARE NEW.
THEY STARTED TODAY ON THE ABOVE BUILDING NORTH OF THE
NO LONGER USED BIG BANK BUILDING. THE PAWN SHOP WAS LAST TO
OCCUPY IT. IT IS A 3 STORY BUILDING. THE TOP WINDOWS WERE CLOSED
WITH CEMENT BLOCKS YEARS AGO. THERE IS ONE APARTMENT ON THE
SECOND FLOOR. THE MAIN FLOOR IS NOW THE HOME OF "NEMMER'S REALTY".
"NEMMERS" IS A BELLEVUE BUSINESS THAT EXPANDED TO MAQUOKETA LAST
YEAR WHEN THEY PURCHASED THE "KENNEDY-GILMORE REALTY". IT WAS
ON EAST QUARRY AND MOVED TO THIS LOCATION MONTHS AGO.
THE ABOVE BUILDING WAS QUITE DULL. ANXIOUS TO SEE THE NEW LOOK.
